Description jack.a.schwartz 2009-04-14 11:10:13 UTC
Bug 4325 went back to the gate.  Docs need to be updated.

Here is the flagday email which documents the changes which need to be changed
in the document:

---

If you don't use AI criteria manifests, you may delete this message...

When you update to the latest SUNWinstalladm-tools package that contains the
fix for:
       4325 Better syntactic treatment of IP and MAC address AI criteria

the criteria manifest format changes slightly in the following ways:

1) MAC address and IP address criteria now must have punctuation.
       - IP addrs must have three dots separating the four subnet values
       - MAC addrs must have five colons separating the six 8-bit hex values

2) Ranges with an unbounded end are now specified with "unbounded" instead of
"None".  For example, for all IPv4 addresses above 100.0.0.0, you would say:

   <ai_criteria name="ipv4">
       <range>
               100.0.0.0       unbounded
       </range>
   </ai_criteria>

3) Ranges where min=max may now be specified with a single value.  Instead of
doing this:

   <ai_criteria name="mac">
       <range>
               1:2:3:4:5:6     1:2:3:4:5:6
       </range>
   </ai_criteria>

you can do this now:

   <ai_criteria name="mac">
       <value>
               1:2:3:4:5:6
       </value>
   </ai_criteria>

       Thanks,
               Jack

I'll add this information to the AI documentation which I deliver on 5/4.
Comment 2 Barbara Lundquist 2009-04-19 14:15:30 UTC
The AI document for 2009.06 already reflects this new information. I think that
the only other documentation that is needed for this change is for David Comay
to include the headsup in the announcement page for the build where this change
takes place.

Jack has sent me further information to update the AI doc for 2009.06. I'll
work on these changes.
Comment 4 David Comay 2009-04-23 07:55:53 UTC
Barbara, can you please mark this bug RESOLVED when you've handed the final
material off?  Thanks.
Comment 5 Barbara Lundquist 2009-04-23 09:19:24 UTC
I've made changes to the AI document to cover this.
